We have seen a lot of artwork depicting the inferno and the circles of hell. However, the inferno is only 1 third of the divine comedy, there is also the Purgatorio and the Paradiso. Here are a few works of art depicting the two. Enjoy!!

Very interesting Ritchie! I really like that second one. I love when artists use their creativity to expresss something they read, especially a we’ll known work such as Dante’s. I feel like I have seen these somewhere but I don’t remember where. It’s alao noteworthy to point out the differences between each artist and all the different styles and techniques used. Are these all from the same time period?
Ok can I just say that I've been looking at that 2nd picture for a while and I'm still in awe! I could never understand how creative artists in ancient times were to have made paintings like this purely from their interpretation of a novel like Inferno!
